This document shows you main configuration and master data settings for

Stock transfer Kanban from WM managed storage location.

Business scenario:

Stock transfer Kanban is used by automobile and discrete manufacturing

industries to transfer raw materials from main ware house to production
supply areas in shop floor. Kanban control cycles are maintained in
production area with material, supply area, storing position, destination bin,
no of Kanbans, Quantity per container, container id etc. Operator or material
handler can scan the bins empty in shop floor to trigger Kanban initiated
transfer orders. System will print transfer orders in the source bin location.
Material handler will pick the material based on Transfer order item and
quantity and move the material to the destination bin printed in the Transfer
order. We can design a custom output for transfer order with bar codes for
control cycle number, Kanban ID etc. Once the material is put away into
destination bins material handler will confirm the TO. This will update
Kanban ID status to Full. Custom forms and print programs can be created
and assigned to print the Kanban labels and control cycles with specific
layout and printer compatibility.

Configuration settings:

Control key settings for direct TO creation for storage location controlled by
WM.

Movement type should be 311 and immediate TO Crtn check box should be
active.

Kanban bin can be scanned empty eiher from Kanban board (PK13N) or RF
transaction (PKRFBC). Last character in Kanban ID barcode can be
hardcoded with empty status “2” to reduce user errors while scanning next
status.

Stock position in ware house before scanning empty:

TO will be created with destination bin as storage bin in the Kanban control
cycle. TO will be printed in the source bin location and material handler will
pick the material and move to the destination bin. Source Sloc will be picked

strategy.
